FAQs

What is ARED 20/30 fabric?

ARED 20/30 is a proprietary fabric technology used by Dare 2b that offers a specific level of waterproof (20,000mm) and breathability (30,000/m2/24hrs) rating, designed for demanding outdoor activities.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

This is a shell jacket, meaning it's designed primarily for protection against wind and rain. For very cold weather, layering with insulating mid-layers would be recommended.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a technical wash or mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or air dry.

Can I adjust the hood?

Yes, the hood features a wired peak and adjustable drawcords to customize the fit and coverage.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets feature water-repellent zips, offering good protection against moisture, but they are not fully submersible.

What does 'Breathe Easy' refer to?

'Breathe Easy' refers to the jacket's high level of breathability, allowing moisture vapor to escape from the inside to keep the wearer comfortable.

Is the jacket made from recycled materials?

Yes, the jacket is made with lightweight recycled stretch fabric.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is leaking water

Check if seams are fully taped and ensure all zips are correctly fastened. Consider re-applying a waterproofing treatment if the DWR coating has worn off.

Reduced breathability

Ensure the garment is clean and free from dirt and oils. Wash with a specialized technical wash. Avoid fabric softeners and harsh detergents.

Zips are stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zips with a damp cloth. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper wax) to the teeth of the zip.

Hood adjustment is not secure

Ensure the toggles on the drawcords are tightened correctly. Check for any damage to the drawcords or toggles.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproofing and breathability for all-weather use.
  • Windproof design for protection against harsh elements.
  • Thoughtful features like underarm ventilation and a wired hood.
  • Constructed with sustainable recycled stretch fabric.
  • Secure, water-repellent pockets for essential items.

Cons

  • May be more performance-oriented than suitable for casual everyday wear.
  • The wired hood might require adjustment for optimal fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no assembly. Ensure all zips are fully closed before wearing. The jacket is designed for use with other outdoor apparel. For care, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with a technical wash or mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impede the fabric's breathability. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry away from direct heat sources. Re-waterproof as needed using a spray-on or wash-in re-proofer following product instructions.
